Pedro Marrero-Miranda, scheduled for Thursday June 9, 2022 at 9:00AM by teleconference, members of the press and public should send an email to presscredentials@prd.uscourts.gov.

Clerk’s Office staff may reach out to requesting parties to confirm information provided in the email request.

Recording and further broadcasting of the proceedings by any means is prohibited under Local Civil Rule 83F(b)(1). Although Judicial Conference policy generally prohibits the broadcasting of proceedings in federal trial courts, the Executive Committee of the Judicial Conference has approved a limited temporary exception to the policy to allow a judge to authorize the use of teleconference technology to provide the public and the press with audio access to court proceedings while public access to federal courthouses is restricted due to the health and safety concerns presented by the COVID-19 pandemic.
